The word ”Easter” comes from the name Eostre, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring and Easter is one of the most favourite holidays in my country. It is a symbol of new life. Easter starts on Good Friday in Britain. My mum makes hot cross buns and we eat them with a lot of butter for tea. On Easter Sunday we all go to church. When we get home, my brother and me play “Easter egg hunt”. My parents hide some Easter eggs in the garden and we look for them. I love playing it! Then we have a big lunch with roasted lamb and vegetables. In the afternoon my grandparents come for tea. We have delicious Easter cupcakes and chocolate sweets for it. Then we all go for a walk. I like Easter because it is a great family festival and there is no school for 2 weeks!☺ Hi, Ukrainian boys and girls! My name is Sarah and I’m 11. I live in London. I have never been to Ukraine but I have read much about your country. It is spring now and people in Great Britain prepare for Easter celebration. Welcome to my country at Easter celebration! Best wishes, Sarah.
